a level result remark, English at soas

I got A in art, B in Maths and C in English and my offer to do English at soas was ABB.
my application was unsuccessful BUT my English teacher said that the first English paper seems to be incorrectly marked for a lot of people so I've paid for a priority marking and hopefully I'll get a B because English is my strong point and I was surprised about the C.
I also have called soas and told them everything and my application is being considered further.
is there a big chance that ill get in if my grade for English goes up and I meet the required grades?
sorry about rambling im very stressed bc I really want this place

If you meet your offer then they should accept you after your review :smile:

It's natural to feel stressed, this is super stressful... :hugs:

If you're need the grade boundary your grade could go up. It's not a remark, it's a grade review. So they're assessing whether the paper has been marked correctly and everything is accounted for.

Unis have to honour the review process so they will hold your place for now and if your grade goes up they'll accept you.

What is your insurance choice?
